Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

The best spot treatment ever. It brings the pimple on the surface of the skin faster, and your pimple will soon be gone once you put a pimple patch over it. It may be strong for others, but I have been using salicylic acid for a while now so my skin did not have any sensitivity to this product.

Works quite well to stop the big pimples from appearing or too bring them to the surface of the skin faster. I like to apply it on the spots where I feel that soon a painful pimple will appear.
